Option D is the way to go. The '-i' flag modifies the file in place, which is exactly what the question asks for.

Option A is the correct answer. It uses the 's' command to replace 'foo' with 'foobar' and the 'g' flag to replace all occurrences.

I'm not sure, but I think option D makes sense because it uses -i flag for in-place editing.

I agree with Larae, using -i option will change the file in place.
